Jonny Garrett

Fri 21 Feb 5:30 pm -6:30 pm
£8.00
Jonny Garrett

A humorous and informative history of beer, which might just be our most important invention! Did you know that the people who built the pyramids were paid in ale; the first fridge was built for beer not food? As Jonny Garrett will reveal, this is not a book about how we made beer, but how beer made us. As Faversham is home to Britain's oldest brewer Shepherd Neame, this is an event not to miss... and all attendees will receive a voucher for a free pint of Shepherd Neame beer at selected Faversham pubs!
